Glendale Mayor: grassroots organizing can reinvigorate democracy

from Lake Effect Spotlight · host WUWM 89.7 FM - Milwaukee's NPR

But a new book by Glendale Mayor Bryan Kennedy argues that both parties have become disconnected from the communities they hope to represent. His book called It’s All Local explores how independent political candidates have attempted to redirect politics in favor of what voters need, and how political leaders of all stripes can incorporate a bottom-up approach to their priorities.
